Cullman Publix Super Market associates exceeded expectations in their third United Way Campaign with donations totaling more than $43,000.
This is the third local campaign since Publix opened its doors in October 2015. Contributions from the 2018-19 campaign will benefit United Way of Cullman County’s 17 local program partners. Publix Super Market Charities will announce a corporate gift to Cullman County United Way later this month.
“Publix and their employees are consistently one of the top donors to United Way of Cullman County. We are incredibly thankful for the outstanding commitment to support United Way. We could not continue to meet the needs of our community without their generosity,.” said Becky Goff, executive director, United Way of Cullman County. “We are honored and grateful to the employees who give back to the communities they serve, not only do they donate funds but they also donate their time and talents in order to improve lives in our community”.
Publix Super Markets, Inc. surpassed their 2018 goal and raised $65.3 million for local United Ways in the United States. Located in only six states, Publix is ranked the third largest United Way donor in the world.
